as far as the ratio goes

2000 Au and 25 Ag makes a ratio of 80:1...it is basically meaningless to me as they will get what they get for gold and they will get what they get for silver those dollar amounts are what matter not a simplified number to make it easier for math challenged people....it really isnt that hard to figure them out separately and add the 2 numbers together....

I agree that the profit margins of a company like SIL will be partially and independently determined by the prices of gold and silver.  My point is that the G/S ratio might be useful for anticipating whether gold is due for a push higher or silver is in for a correction.  The ratio is not fixed, but it does vary in interesting ways that reflect physical demand as well as speculative

fair enough...there are many factors affecting gold and silver prices independantly from each other and many things that have changed the ratio over the longer term...i just dont think their prices are tethered to a ratio number as much as some do...IMHO
